This is really tragic. I can't imagine what Dan Tani on the ISS must be
going through right now ...

Astronaut's Mother Dies In Ill. Crash While Son Is In Space, AP
http://www.nbc5.com/news/14893826/detail.html

"The mother of a NASA astronaut who is on board the International Space
Station died Wednesday 
when a train struck her vehicle at a crossing in this western Chicago
suburb, police said. A 
preliminary investigation showed Rose Tani, 90, of Lombard stopped behind a
school bus that had 
halted at the crossing for a train, Lombard Police Chief Raymond Byrne said
in a statement. Tani, 
mother of astronaut Daniel M. Tani, apparently became impatient, honked her
horn, went around 
the school bus and bypassed the lowered crossing gate by driving north in
the street's southbound 
lane, Byrne said."
